Children’s Play Council

The Children’s Play Council was an organization in the UK dedicated to promoting the importance of play in children’s development. It aimed to raise awareness about how play contributes to physical, social, and emotional well-being. By advocating for quality play opportunities, the council worked with policymakers, educators, and communities to create environments where children can freely engage in play. Despite its closure in 2011, its legacy continues to influence discussions about child development and the necessity of play in fostering creativity, learning, and resilience in children.
